Isn't the value of 2 ethernet-specific (to round the 14-byte header up
to 16)?  Given that the rest of the lro code is fairly careful to
calculate mac_hdr_len etc it seems as if it would be cleaner to make
this independent of the specific L2 being used.

(And I plan on using the LRO module for IP-over-InfiniBand so this is
not completely theoretical)
